here is the problem. you are looking at this all from the perspective of looking back on the OT duels AFTER watching the PT films. You must look at the OT duels before the PT came out. No one thought the duels were WEAK or SLOW or not flashy.

You're looking at this from the perspective of being defensive because kids in the park with a broomstick are pretending to be Darth Maul instead of Luke, and that deeply bothers you.

If the PT never came out, it still makes PERFECT SENSE that Luke/Vader II was faster and more dynamic that Obi/Vader because Obi was an old man and Luke was a full fledged Jedi Knight. It makes sense that Vader doesn't do flips and shit because he's seven feet tall in full body armor. The fact the same blatantly obvious story-logic extends to the fights in the PT does not make it somehow invalid. Just watch the movies. It's all there.

The duel in ANH is great, but its still and old man and a heavy cyborg.

heres the facts on the dueling styles....ion the OT era..lucas always claimed that the jedi were a mix of merlin the wizard and the knights of the round table.....hence him using old europeon style swod fighting....

I missed this in your OP, but you are perhaps aware that the Jedi are overwhelmingly influenced by Lucas's well-documented love of Samurai movies right? If you read, I recommend Zombie's book.
